Default For those stock Tip S4, the Volvo S60 will be competition

Check this link: http://www.revolvolution.com/aol/peIndex.html
0-60 in 6.4 seconds wow. This make the S60 fall in the range of the 330i, Acura CL Type S, and the S4 tip.
I would like to go test drive one to really feel the power.
Any comments would be appreciated....

Default 247hp through the front wheels? Hell-o, torque steer.

I'll wait for that S60R with AWD, thank you. ;-)

Default Don't underestimate the Volvo.

My ol' S70 T5 smoked a lot of unsuspecting hot-heads.

Default Had a 740 Turbo with turbo + and a five speed in Undergrad ...

After new shocks etc, it was a seriously fun sleeper ... completely reliable as well! Unfortunately not exactly a hit with the ladies!
